wear, wrap, tie, follow around, collect
纏 centers on gathering things together by winding or binding: wrapping, tying, wearing something wrapped, or collecting items into one bundle. The sense of following around extends this idea of staying closely attached.
纏 combines 糸 (thread) with 廛, which likely contributes the sound and the idea of winding or binding. The thread radical reinforces the action of wrapping or tying with thread.
Thread 糸 on the left wraps around the complex right side 廛, like winding thread around a bundle to tie everything together. This bundling action captures wearing, wrapping, and collecting.
For テン, imagine wrapping a bundle so tightly that it creates tension: ten-sion -> テン, and the thread holds everything together.
